This patch provides a temporarily relief for inter copy to work with
some common configs.  For long term solution, I think Trond's suggestion
of using fs/nfs/nfs_common to store an op table that server can use to
access the client code is the way to go.

Below are the results of my testing of upstream mainline without and with the fix.

Upstream version used for testing:  5.9-rc5

1. Upstream mainline (existing code: NFS_FS=y)

NOTE1:
BUG:  When inter server copy fails with NFS4ERR_STALE, it left the file
created with size of 0!

NOTE2:
When NFS_V4=y and NFS_FS=m, the build process automatically builds with NFS_V4=m
and ignores the setting NFS_V4=y in the config file. 

This probably due to NFS_V4 in fs/nfs/Kconfig is configured to depend on NFS_FS.
